A true classic, but until I re-watched it I had forgotten that the same episode gave us the malfunctioning holo-clown segment.

HOLO CLOWN: Did I show you my magical whimsical squirting flower?TOM: Yes, about a kazillion times!HOLO CLOWN: Aw... well did I show you my rash?

HOLO CLOWN: Hey little girl... would you like a salted nut roll?

HOLO CLOWN A starts spontaneously freaking out.HOLO CLOWN B: What are you yelling about? Shut up! You think I like being stuck in limbo with you? Get on your orange and yellow knees and kiss my clown feet that I haven't killed you!

"Clive [Barker]'s idea of a great time is to have a nightmare about a woman with three heads and no skin who flays your body with a pitchfork. To give you some idea, NIGHTBREED has over 200 pus monsters, including one guy with a crescent moonhead like the McDonald's commercial and a fat guy with snakes that pop out of his stomach and eat your face off, and these are the GOOD GUYS. These are the people we're supposed to LIKE."-Joe Bob on NIGHTBREED

In the opening, Joel is reading the bots scary bedtime stories, but they're too jaded to be scared by Stephen King. So Joel goes to the most horrifying tome of all... "Life's Little Instruction Book."

Then, there's the "Who's Merritt Stone?" sequence to close the episode.

Also two good ones in MONSTER A GO-Go.

Gypsy doesn't "get" Crow. She can't explain exactly what it is she doesn't get, though. "Is it because I often panic while making sandwiches?," Crow wonders. Maybe it's Tom she doesn't get?

In the closer, Tom is a happy king and Crow is Sir Giggles von Laughs-a-Lot.

Love it. I also love the fact that Frank and Dr. Forrester separately apologize to Joel for the movie. "I know it's our job to send you really bad movies, but this time, even I have to admit, we really went too far."
